Hi,
Just joined the forum, and wondered if any of you could help.
I'm completely restoring a '74 Bay that was imported from Australia a while ago, and am having problems getting the rubber seals to fit this sunroof. Any tips on manufacturerer, or where to go for spare seals would be hugely appreciated! I know the pic isn't the best, but there are 2 seperate panes of glass, with a central panel between them that has a light tube attached below.
Never seen one like that before. Most likely a custom thing someone did once. You'll probably have to get seals made up for it, maybe cut some yourself from a similar application. Good luck.
Thanks so much for the replies.... I'll chase up the Aunger tip shortly.
I'm in the UK, the bus was imported by a chap last year (as I understand it, there's a few "issues" about that sort of thing on here, and rightly so IMHO!) and as it was already here, and I was looking to get back into air-cooled, I ended up buying it. This is my 3rd Bay Window, and I've had 3 T25s too (the most recent being a South African VolksieBus with the 2.5 Ltr straight 5 that they fit down there😂
This project has grown somewhat from being a quick rub-and-repaint, into a full-on strip, cutting, welding, new panels, new headling, engine rebuild, new interior....
Bit of a time pressure too, as it's currently in a million pieces, and I'm due to take the wife and kids on a 3 week tour of France in July!
Anyway, I really appreciate your help, and hope you don't mind me popping back for advice on here as I want to keep it as origional as possible, mechanically, keeping as much of it's Australian character as possible.
